It had been a hard day for Daki, who sighed and stretched, "Yeah... sure." Right now, she had just talked to her brother.

Daki, also known as "ume," joyfully entered her dorm's kitchen to see a delicious snack waiting for her in the fridge.
The chilly air gently brushed across her as she opened the refrigerator, introducing her to a whole new flavor world.

Snatching a granola bar, Daki's gaze stumbled on the black-haired girl who was sitting motionlessly like a shadow. For a time, Daki watched Uta as she sat in front of a fried rice onigiri.

Mitsuri stepped out of the shower looking fresh while a towel hung in her shoulders

Little beads of water fell to the ground as Mitsuri rubbed her towel against her scalp to dry her hair, as she said to Daki, "She's been doing this consistently since we left the restaurant."

"Is it about the man"
Mitsuri nodded. On their way home, uta had already told mitsuri about what happened in the park, while shinobu being there, she laughed while mitsuri tried to cover her's to not cause anymore embarrassment to her best friend.

Daki grunted in disappointment and ate all of her granola in one mouthful before crossing her arms and throwing the wrapper in the trash.

Uta was brought back to her senses when daki snapped her fingers across her face.

"Watcha think'n about?" Daki asked, hunching her waist in a menacing manner while Uta only blinked.
"If your not gonna eat it, I will"

After ume said this, She took the onigiri with care and began to unwrap it.

She laughed, sounding bashful, "I'm overreacting, aren't I?

As she chuckled, Mitsuri's hair dryer could be heard in the distance, "The guy offered you an onigiri, so what?"

"Yes, but kocho-san was told to give it to me, so why didn't he mention it was from him?"

"The real question is why he didn't just give it to you forward" she added.

when uta bit into the onigiri, her body relaxed in response to the rice's flavor; she would be lying if she said she didn't like it.

uta says with a childlike grin, "mhh....yum." even though daki's brow twitched, she wasn't irritated and instead was amazed at how quickly uta's mood shifted.

Uta continued to eat while thinking deeply. Being a talkative person, she watched her mouth and kept her words to a limit since she knew that if she didn't, people wouldn't like her.

However, she was taken aback by the fact that the man offered her food without even exchanging a single word to each other. Perhaps Yoriichi was just shy? A man who seems like he can annihilate a soul with a single glance cannot possibly be shy.

But Uta didn't believe it; perhaps the man was merely trying to make a good impression and avoid coming off as threatening? Uta maintained her optimism and didn't set the conclusion that he was a horrible guy.

"He probably just didn't want to come off threatening to me, I think he's a nice guy!" Uta cheered like a child, Daki grinned and sighed, she flicked her finger at uta's head to put her senses back to her brain.

"You pea-brain, the last time you said that about a guy, your relationship didn't even last for a month" she snickered, but uta only smiled.

"I wouldn't want people to get hurt if they knew their friend had a bad view about them, besides, the last guy wasn't that bad anyways, I've met worse people"
Ume sighed bet let her be, "if she's got a problem, she can deal it on her own,"
Is what ume always says
